Everton vs Newcastle prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - October 5, 2024
One of the fights within the 7th round of the English championship will be played on Saturday at Goodison Park Arena, where local Everton will take on Newcastle. We offer a prediction for this match from a team of experts Dailysports.
Everton
Everton are finally starting to show signs of progress. After a tough start, where the Toffees were looking for their game for a long time, they started to pick up points. First a draw with Leicester, then a long awaited first win of the season over Crystal Palace.
These successes quickly improved their position in the standings, considering that many teams are also stalling at the start. Of course, there are still plenty of problems in Sean Dyche's side's game, especially in defence, but the improvements are evident.
The main plus has been the increase in performance - eight goals scored in the last five matches clearly show that Everton's attack has found the right pace.
Newcastle
Newcastle, under Eddie Howe, continue to show a serious level of play. The winning streak was broken by Fulham, but the Magpies quickly rehabilitated themselves by showing character against Manchester City last weekend.
The meeting with the champion ended in a draw, and Newcastle looked one of the few teams who managed to impose such a serious fight against the Citizens. This season, Howe's team continues to progress, remaining competitive at the top of the table.
Yes, the game in the League Cup with Wimbledon was not a real test for the main squad, but even with the rotation Newcastle managed to win with a minimum score of 1-0 at home, which once again emphasises the level of personnel potential of the ‘forty’.

Prediction
Expect a hard fought encounter where Everton, who have gained momentum, will be looking to consolidate their success, and Newcastle, confident in their abilities, will try to control the course of the meeting. An important factor will be how the Magpies will cope with the attacking impulse of the Toffees, who are gradually finding their game in attack. In this match we should take ‘Total over 2.5’ at odds of 1.68.
